War is a very sad state of affairs
the question wasnt what was the best invention - it was what was the greatest - and as a concept war has shaped everything more than any other single thing - from encouraging the use of more efficent tools (given human nature I'd lay money the idea of poking holes in things to kill them was first tried on a person - rather than a mammoth lol), to making computers (hmmm..wonder if they were ever used to figure out better and more efficient ways of 'throwing' metal shells at people), to the space race (hmm...calculators, digital watches, microwaves etc - just to get someone to where they could drop really large rocks on people - ok so that one didnt work lol)
like it or not war is responsible for practically every other invention - apart from furbies - but no one knows about them lol
